Is Pinterest extra safe?

Low risk

Pinterest extra loads on every website and sends page-derived link IDs to Pinterest when it finds Pinterest-like lists.

The extension registers a content script on all URLs and watches pages for list/listitem elements. When it finds matching items, it reads each link's last path component as a pin ID and requests Pinterest's PinResource API with that ID.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Pinterest extra contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
